Hello all, I'm Steve and fresh to the forum. I own a 2003 deuce with a 95in upgraded engine. Also have the sert. Problem i'm having is I can hear my Valves or pushrods clicking when I'm riding and it's not cheap gas, I only use premium. I've taken it to latus a couple of times to see if they could tune the map and remove the ticking, but it seems like it may be the valves clicking or as a friend said it may be the pushrods need adjustment. My million dollar question is 2 fold, has anyone else had this problem and if so what is the resolve for it, I rode a friends softail custom the other day and it was so quiet, it was loud with the pipes but when i idled at the stoplight it just purred, I really am worried about this noise, please point me in the right direction if anyone is familiar with this.

Thanks and I'll be happy to help with any issues i've dealt with already and trust me when i say I love my harley but i've had issues i've had to deal with.


Thanks!
